Vermont has a 3.35-8.75% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 8.75%. High cost of living. Small market. Tourism economy (skiing, fall foliage). No local income taxes.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,056/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it payment tracking, a platform for jobs, or a invoicing system — most acupuncturists in Burlington piece together Vagaro, Acuity Scheduling, QuickBooks, Square and similar apps. That's $1,056/year paying for software subscriptions. Over 5 years at today's prices, that adds up to $5,280.
Nexa means you stop renting software. Your CRM, payment tracking, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — all in one platform. One move books a client. One move generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No third-party glue. No add-on costs. It's a no subscription — eliminate recurring fees immediately. For acupuncturists in Burlington weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
She unlocks the clinic around 8:30, switches on the diffuser, and warms the room because patients won't relax on a cold table. The first patient is a recurring lower-back case; she checks the tongue, takes the pulse at both wrists, and notices it's wirier than last week. She inserts a dozen needles, clips on the e-stim leads, dims the lights, and leaves him to rest for twenty-five minutes while she preps the next room and lights a moxa stick for an arthritis patient. Between treatments she's refilling the sharps container, restocking cotton balls, and answering a text from someone asking if their insurance covers dry needling. Midday a new patient fills out a long intake; she spends the consult mapping symptoms to a TCM pattern before a single needle goes in. The afternoon is back-to-back, and she's quietly counting how many sessions remain on each patient's prepaid package in her head. After the last patient she sits down to write up SOAP notes she didn't have time for between visits, reconciles two superbills, and wipes down every table. She closes the sharps log, turns off the TDP lamp, and reminds herself to reorder 0.20mm needles before Thursday.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build an acupuncturist's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for an acupuncturist — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
